The Apache-2.0 scanner (14,403 stars) shipped v2.8.1 on August 7 and v2.8.2 on August 8, covering Claude Code, Codex CLI, and Gemini CLI across 68 vulnerability patterns in 17 categories, with live OSV.dev CVE lookups and SARIF output (GitHub). The actionable ratio: skills bundling executable scripts are 2.12x more likely to be vulnerable. Risk concentrates in the script payload, not the SKILL.md prose. If you're only reviewing the markdown before installing a skill, you're reviewing the wrong file.

Six clients. One manifest. Zero vendor lock. Vercel published Agent Plugins 1.0.0 on August 6, an openly licensed spec that bundles Agent Skills and MCP servers behind a single portable manifest. The shape is deliberately boring: a plugin.json requiring only schemaVersion and...
A spec is a press release until someone who didn't write it implements it. GitHub made Agent Plugins 1.0 generally available on August 12 across VS Code, Copilot CLI, the Copilot SDK, and the Copilot app on all plans. The spec, published August 6, was co-authored by AWS, Anysp...
